When a repair is not the answer

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • A cracked stone top that is unsupported
  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • Laminate that has blown or swollen

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Materials we work on in Port na Craig

  • Solid surface (such as Corian)
  • Laminate
  • Quartz
  • Solid wood
  • Granite & marble

Different materials, different repairs

Quartz

Quartz worktops are mostly stone set in resin. We fill and polish chipped edges.

Wood

Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, with burns and dents put right.

How it works

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. The area around the damage is protected.
  2. We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
  3. It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
  4. The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed and polished to match.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

How to get a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

FAQs for Port na Craig

How much do I need to move?

Just clear the area around the damage. The rest is covered and protected.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

Can a scorch mark be fixed?

Generally. Send us a picture and we will tell you what’s possible.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Access to the area
  • The material and finish
  • How many areas need work

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Quotes from your photos

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • One picture of the whole worktop
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

How to look after the repair

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Keep wood oiled
  • Wipe up spills quickly
  • Don’t cut directly on the worktop
  • Dry around the sink and joints

Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, particularly with laminate and timber.

Do not leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.
